[Intro]
| Am | - |
[Verse 1]
C Am
I've got stories to tell,
but no means to tell 'em
C
I've got words to get out,
but they'll send me to Hell
Fmaj7
I bet you're drunk at the Franklin,
blowin' off all that grief that I gave you
Fmaj7sus2 Am
It's cold when you're here and it's cold when
you're not
C
It hit me like a bullet,
but I took it 'cause I'm strong
Fmaj7
And I'm the closest to the man,
the man I never was
Fmaj7sus2 Am
And I'm drivin' home from the worst night alive
C
Thanksgiving was like Hell,
but I give thanks that I'm alive
Fmaj7
I don't care that I don't mean it
I don't care that I can't hide it like I used to
Fmaj7sus2
What's the use to?
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
I will survive, but I'll never recover
C
The ache comes and goes like scars with the weather
Fmaj7
I'm stuck with the pains in the place of all the love I
still have for you
Fmaj7sus2
I'm not mad at you
[Chorus]
C G Fmaj7
I thought I could change you for better
C G Fmaj7
All I did was break you forever
Am
You needed saving,
G Fmaj7
and I couldn't save you this time
C G Fmaj7
All I did was break you forever
[Verse 2]
Am
I had reasons to run and reasons to fight
C
Don't ask me why I stayed 'cause I couldn't tell you why
Fmaj7
I was hopeless, I was young, I was angry,
but I thought I was fine
Fmaj7sus2 Am
Now this place is empty,
and if the walls could talk
C
They would tell you how it is and tell you how it's not
Fmaj7
'Cause I would never take the blame on all the things that
Fmaj7sus2
I know were my fault
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
I will survive, but I'll never recover
C
Love in the balance will never be covered
Fmaj7
You don't owe me none, there's no debt to me,
darling
Fmaj7sus2
I promise you, I'm not mad at you
[Bridge]
G Fmaj7
Woah, I'm not mad at you
[Chorus]
C G Fmaj7
I thought I could change you for better
C G Fmaj7
All I did was break you forever
Am
You needed saving,
G Fmaj7
and I couldn't save you this time
C G Fmaj7
All I did was break you forever
[Post-Chorus]
C G Fmaj7
I will survive, but I'll never recover
C G
I will get by, but I'll never get over
Fmaj7 C
I will survive,
G Fmaj7
but I'll never recover
[Outro]
